Evening Movie Contest: 79.16%

Those sections totally killed my attempts at a second play though.
Regular lotion on feet, hands, elbows, knees, etc. is worth it.

You're welcome! Be warned, it's humbling AF... I feel like I have no idea what in doing half the time.
We used to do that too. Now I keep a list on Google sheets with just =rand() in a column. Mark watched as we go and at the end of the list sort by rand.
I've been doing this for a few years and it's great!
It's a good process, and when I'm taking 2+ hours on a piece I very much do it. I normally get a piece about half done and put it away until tomorrow. Then I see a bunch of stuff I didn't see before.
I just don't know how to do that when my time budget is ~10 minutes. I'm looking for the hack or whatever people have done to solve the problem in much less time.
My traditional workflow is measure measure measure draw. It gets super accurate results and takes hours to get done. Not going to work for this art goal of drawing people on a subway and giving it them for example.
🤣🤣🤣
I'd never seen that before. Thank you for sharing!
I know the saying but don't get the reference...!?

30 Minute Speed Painting
(thelemmy.club)
Without measurement and without liquefy the subject is very misshapen (watch the timelapse for an example). I have this crooked bias I'm not sure how to solve for. If you solved this for yourself, how did you do it? I'm struggling. And it's really digging into my time budget for high quality renders in ~10 minutes.

Flat Earther: Complicated explanation on why it's flat
Me: Your argument is flawed. Look the earth is flat but your argument is missing the important part.
Flat Earther: (leans in with excitement)
Me: The oceans, all of them, none of them are carbonated... all flat!

18 Minute Speed Painting
(thelemmy.club)
Side profile is easier for sure, 18 minutes is too long. And doing this without taking measurements is more difficult than I imagined. People who can just draw in proportions right away amaze me.

Before I was this picture my first thought was: this is why people search "why do my eyes hurt" after an eclipse.

30 Minute Sketch
(thelemmy.club)
I'd like to be able to get to this fidelity in 10 minutes or so. I have a lot of work to do to get there.

Gestural Drawing
(thelemmy.club)
One of my art goals is to draw a good likeness of someone live in ~10 minutes. My current workflow takes hours to get there with lots of measuring and re-measuring. This is me trying to draw on the fly with no measuring. ~15 minutes.
Feedback?

Mad Vampire
(thelemmy.club)
Clearly a genre that needs more exploitation. Vampires Beyond the Thunder Dome! I love the movies and the one video game.
Wanted to end the series with a bang. What do you think?

Vampire Bite
(thelemmy.club)
In this vampire series I need to do at least one painting that really showcases the teeth. This is my attempt. How did I do?

Vampire XCX
(thelemmy.club)
When I saw the reference photo of Charli XCX I thought to myself, now THAT'S a vampire! Plus I hadn't done one with teeth or blood yet. And now I have.

Vampire Queen
(thelemmy.club)
It wasn't her wings or teeth that gave it away. But the reflection she did not have.
When I started this piece I was planning to paint a reflection. Silly me. Looks unsettling without it which I think fits the scene.

Vampire
(thelemmy.club)
I'm trying for a modern Gothic look. When I look for vampire reference material the outfits are almost all from the Victorian era. This is my attempt to modernize the style a bit. What do you think? What would a modern vampire wear?

Spooktober
(thelemmy.club)
If you're thinking it's only July you'd be wrong. How do I know? My wife at I went shopping this weekend and 3 of the 4 stores were Halloween decked out. Clearly that means it's October...
And I wanted you try to paint a vampire.

I bet it would feel great on your chitinous hooves! And I hate the feeling as well. The lotion was prescribed as part of my recovery from second degree burns. I found a way to tolerate it. Mostly including wiping my hands off between the fingers. So gross.
And how many of too many pancakes? And does the quality of pancake play a part in the equation?
